Alpine Elementary School

Summary:

Alpine Elementary School is a small public school in Alpine, Arizona, serving 59 students in grades K-8. Despite its small size, the school consistently outperforms the state average in academic achievement, particularly in Science, English Language Arts, and Mathematics. For example, in the 2022-2023 school year, the school had significantly higher proficiency rates in Science (70% vs. 34% statewide), English Language Arts (ranging from 40% to 67% vs. 37% to 45% statewide), and Mathematics (ranging from 20% to 89% vs. 27% to 43% statewide).

Alpine Elementary School's performance is especially noteworthy in certain student subgroups.

While Alpine Elementary School has consistently performed well, there are a few areas that could be addressed. The school's performance in 8th-grade Mathematics, with only 20% proficiency in the 2022-2023 school year, could be an area for improvement. Additionally, the school's performance for special education students, which ranked 1,147 out of 1,201 Arizona elementary schools in the 2020-2021 school year, suggests a need for further support and resources for this student population. Overall, Alpine Elementary School is a high-performing school that is part of the Alpine Elementary District, which is ranked 90 out of 540 school districts in Arizona and is rated 4 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
